Christ Crucified: A Stumbling Block for Jews and an Absurdity to Gentiles

Such appears to be the common reasons for most of the negative media reviews on The Passion.

How one sees the movie the Passion, depends on whether one has the light of faith or not. Someone of one mind and heart would see something as white, and someone of another mind and heart would see the same thing as black. Take the Catholic Church as example. Many people see it as the most despicable thing on earth. For the heart in the state of God's favor, on the other hand, the Catholic Church is the most beautiful thing on earth.
